Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Grav Shortcode Core versions prior to 6.2.2
Description
Stored cross-site scripting occurs when the plugin processes shortcode syntax through
Security::detectXss() without proper encoding. Specifically, ColorShortcode.php and related attribute handlers concatenate attacker-controlled parameters directly into HTML. An account with admin.pages permission can manipulate the generated attribute to add an event handler, allowing the execution of malicious scripts for visitors or administrators viewing the page.Recommendations
Update to version 6.2.2.
